Why would they release some small ity bity market before the top 3 dma's ? that just doesnt make any sence.. get the big ones out of the way first 
ahhhhahh.... I got yea.. no idea.. I think dish may be using this as a test for HD LIL except it would be by time zone makes sence.. but you would think they would pick denver instead of some small dma.

#46 DMA I think but the State is Number 5 in Land Area and some of Arizona and Colorado are served by these broadcasters...

Seems an extremely bizarre choice...perhaps their decision making process involves a dart/dartboard. If they release DMA #46 to the public, all that does is set themselves up for 45 more DMAs' customers expecting it in short order. I can understand adding the larger DMAs, but going 40+ deep?!?
Fewer people to complain about the buggy software in the new receivers!!DWS44 said:
Maybe they should do HD LILs first for Dish, Texas!!!!!!! I understand that is the town with the highest percentage of viewers!
Guys, it's Dish Network. They don't even know WTF they are doing. Remember the Tech. Chat Bullsh!t they gave us just to be changed a few weeks later in the Charlie Chat.
I think its pretty obvious now that HD LIL will be in mpeg4 with 4 channels per TP. Whether these channels stay new mexico locals or not remains to be seen.
The East and West feeds from NYC and LA appear they will remain mpeg2.

Only Alb. and Denver for Mt Time Zone Major Players...Personally I like Denvers better as I had the Denver 5 for a long time on BUD... and Alb. has Usdtv sucking away bandwidth...

Nothing in Arizona is covered by Albuquerque. I think you're right about southern Colorado though.
That is an excellent point though, and exactly why DMA# shouldn't be the only factor in deciding what markets to put up. The western states depend on LIL, Cable & Translators far more than the eastern states.
Still, #46 is kind of low. Phoenix serves a much larger population and almost as much area. But the DST thing means it's on a completely different Prime Time schedule than every other state half the year, so it's a lousy choice to represent the Mountain zone.
Denver serves almost as many people as Phoenix. And Salt Lake City covers more land area than any other DMA (All of Utah and parts of Wyoming, Idaho, and Nevada) AND more people than Albuquerque.
So again, I ask...KOAT!?!
